In the end, he could not even enter the door.
An uncle from the village happened to be here. He was middle-aged and still had a lot of strength. Also, his status was high. He stopped Tie Wa and frowned. “Tie Wa, it’s fragrant, but why did you barge into the Guan family’s house to eat meat? This is Guan family’s food. Who allowed you to barge into their house?”
Although everyone present was craving it, they also felt that this was reasonable. If they could casually break in and ask for something, wouldn’t everyone be able to enjoy only the good stuff?
Hence, Tie Wa was stopped.
“Why can’t I go in? I’ll only eat a little!” Tie Wa struggled, but he could not resist the strength of a man who had been farming for years.

He even scolded Auntie Tian indirectly.
Auntie Tian’s face instantly turned ashen, and her eyes became as dark as the bottom of a pot. She slowly gritted her teeth.
“I don’t care. I want to eat meat. I want to eat meat! It smells good, I’m hungry!” Tie Wa was also quite fierce and did not listen to the adults at all. He started to want to roll around.
How would an elder in the village let a child create such a ruckus? His face darkened, and he pressed Tie Wa to the ground. Tie Wa wanted to roll around, but he was pressed so hard that he could not move.
The immense strength stunned Tie Wa.
No one had ever used so much strength to hold him down. Tie Wa was a little panicked.
He looked up and saw the uncle’s stern expression. The uncle’s arms were filled with muscles and he was unusually strong. Of course, how could an adult lose to a child?
The uncle said, “You want to cause trouble when you’re so young? You still have a few decades to live. If you continue, I’ll ask your father to come and take you back. Who said that you can barge in just by smelling the fragrance of other people’s meat? Did your mother not cook for you?”
“Yes, but my house only has pickled vegetables and rice soup. It’s very bad! My mother’s cooking is very bad!”
Tie Wa was shocked, afraid, and ashamed. He wanted to find a valid reason for himself to act as if it was reasonable for him to break into someone else’s house to find meat to eat. This reason was ‘his mother’s cooking is very unpalatable.’
With so many people around, Tie Wa said loudly twice that Auntie Tian’s cooking was very bad.
The villagers burst out laughing.
Auntie Tian gritted her teeth as though someone had poured a pot of swill over her head!

Tie Wa could not answer and his mouth was pressed under the big hand.
The uncle put him down and snorted. “Hurry up and go back. Do you think with so many adults around, we can’t control you?”
Tian Laoqi was an extremely ordinary person. His looks were ordinary, his work was ordinary, and his strength was ordinary as well. Tie Wa had never felt such strong strength at home. He became weak and didn’t dare to make any more noise as he retreated.
Auntie Tian loved her son, so she could not bear to hit him. Furthermore, she did not say a single word and had lost a lot of face. If she continued to teach her son a lesson, it would only be more embarrassing.
Auntie Tian was mocked by the villagers present for no reason. Her eyes darkened as she led Tie Wa back to her house at the end of the village.
…
The Guan family had a hearty dinner that night. Even the youngest Qimao was eating a ‘sizzling chicken’ drumstick.
